Between oak and marble

A light-filled penthouse features modern furnishings in natural tones with refined details. The timeless combination of marble and wood is complemented by the classic style of bronze-finished knobs and handles with sinuous lines. A sense of softness is expressed in the rounded edges of the furnishings, the brushed finish of the oak and the light tones of the matt maple.

A kitchen in brushed-stained oak with a Carrara marble worktop dominates the bright living area of a Milanese penthouse. The peninsula unfolds in all its grandeur, interacting with the space in front of it through a rhythmic sequence of recessed doors with push-to-open mechanisms and internal shelves. It houses the hob and is softened by external radiating lines that extend from the Carrara marble worktop onto the fixed side panel in stained oak.

Full-height tall units and parallel base units house spacious drawers, pull-out baskets, shelves and internal drawers: functional elements that alternate to provide optimal storage for goods and accessories, enhanced by semi-circular bronze-finished handles. The composition is completed by two shelves – the lower of which incorporates an LED strip – which run parallel to the freestanding steel fridge.

In the sleeping area, stained oak meets classic style in the master bathroom, featuring drawers with high fronts and pronounced frames, rounded sides and a Carrara marble top with an undermount washbasin. The vintage-style taps echo the retro aesthetic and bronze tones.

The guest bathroom features the rounded shape of the freestanding unit on both sides, paired with a delicate marble with aqua-green veining that occasionally shifts to grey-pink. Bronzed handles are featured on the drawer fronts. In the utility bathroom, a recessed unit with a push-pull door flanked by oak shelves completes

The Archetype of Grey

The Archetype of Grey

A complete renewal, a story of continuity. The Tiziana Fausti store in Bergamo is transformed, finding in a single shade of grey the guiding thread that unites spaces, materials, and functions in a coherent and harmonious language.

Project: Arch. Silvia Guerrini
Year: 2025
Site: Bergamo

A fresh, measured shade of grey, not too dark, becomes the foundation of a sensorial experience where neutrality is a choice, not an absence.
Walls, furnishings, and display totems all take on the same hue, while a soft, high-pile carpet underfoot welcomes each step, creating a tactile contrast to the smooth surfaces of the furniture.

The floor seems to rise upward in some display niches, where the carpet wraps around thick shelves like a tongue extending from below to embrace the space.
Even the display cubes, covered in the same material, are stacked in geometric compositions, shaping visual volumes and new focal points.

In this monochrome setting, the merchandise becomes the true protagonist, vibrant, colorful, luminous.
The project thus becomes a vast neutral container that celebrates the chromatic and material diversity of the products, allowing every detail to emerge.

The same concept extends throughout each area, from the ground floor to the mezzanine and the first-floor corners, in a visual continuum that redefines the store’s identity.

There is also a sustainable, quiet yet tangible dimension: existing furniture was restored, repainted, or covered to reduce waste and enhance what was already there.

An immersive and discreet environment, where one feels as though swimming in a sea of soft grey.
Among the most evocative details, the belt conveyor left intentionally visible on the first floor recalls the behind-the-scenes world the living, operational soul of the space.
And finally, a wall of glass giogali, transparent and interlocked, filters the light with delicacy.

Within this context, a true artistic gesture seals the project and its poetry:
neon writings by artist Marcello Maloberti illuminate some of the windows and the entrance wall, bringing fragments of language and light that complete the experience, transforming the store into a place of fascination and narrative.

Venetian Symphony

Venetian Symphony

A historic Venetian residence meets contemporary design in a symphony where the timeless elegance of wood encounters the modernity of metals. The soul of a city suspended in time permeates the interiors of this home, where opposites converge in perfect harmony.

Project: ARCHITUDE
Year: 2024
Site: Venezia

Light-toned walls and a Venetian terrazzo floor embrace the interiors of this residence, where furnishings with metallic reflections dialogue with the enduring elegance of wood.
The kitchen unfolds around a rounded island, extending along the walls at different heights. Tall cabinets frame the entrance portal, while on the opposite side, the base units seamlessly transition into a bench beneath the window.
The burnished brass lacquer introduces a contemporary note, elevated by its pairing with marble countertops. Drawers and doors equipped with pull-out mechanisms ensure order and functionality.
The metal theme recurs in the passageways and lacquered doors that connect the various spaces.

In the bedroom, a canopy structure with an essential design combines metal with a fluted, thermo-treated wooden headboard. A niche integrated into the wall paneling serves as a minimal bedside element, while the passageways to the walk-in closet blend into the structure, remaining both prominent and discreet. Wood once again takes center stage, with lower drawers and open compartments offering double-height hanging space.

In the bathroom, wood grain finds its fullest expression in the vanity unit with mirrored drawers, topped by a white veined marble countertop that echoes the kitchen. The upper mirror integrates a concealed cabinet, providing storage without sacrificing brightness and essential lines.

Mirrored surfaces, a recurring theme throughout the project, enhance the natural light, from the decorated entryway cabinet fronts to the sliding door leading into the bedroom.

Oak Soul

Oak Soul

In this new project, the space transforms into a story of harmony and modernity.
A skillful use of materials defines the spaces: the warmth of wood, the lightness of white, and the depth of black intertwine in a contemporary balance.

Project: Gianluca Tessaro Interior Designer
Year: 2025
Site: Ponteranica

Materials, light, and volumes become essential, and every detail contributes to a sense of fluidity and lightness. The kitchen, both essential and functional, opens naturally onto the living area and entrance through a corridor lined with thermo-treated oak paneling.

The paneling becomes the cornerstone of the project, enveloping the space in thermo-treated oak, chosen in a medium tone—not too dark nor too light—capable of balancing an already bright environment dominated by light colors. The kitchen, with pearl gray shades, is embraced by a deep-toned Dekton countertop with subtle light veins and features a central island designed for more informal and dynamic moments.

The dining table, solid and welcoming, custom-designed and crafted in detail, becomes a place of gathering and conviviality, while the living area is intended for more intimate and relaxing moments. The entire living space is lined with paneling, whose intensity warms the environment, giving it a more masculine and refined feel, in a story of continuity and harmony.

Anthracite slats shape perspectives, partially obscure the view, and act as a unifying motif, marking transitions and creating subtle divisions between spaces. The paneling also conceals service areas and access to the sleeping area, maintaining visual fluidity and coherence.

In the bathroom, thermo-treated oak returns as a connecting element in a custom-made column cabinet with internal shelves and space for the washing machine, combining functionality with elegance.

This renovation is not just an aesthetic intervention, but a new way of living the home: a space that welcomes, breathes, and tells a lifestyle story defined by beauty, functionality, and harmony.

Sensorial Experience in Design

Sensorial Experience of Design

A Milanese refuge where design meets emotion. A project that becomes a sensorial experience, open to anyone wishing to embrace it. Project: Studio Locatelli Partners Year: 2024 Site: Milano

In the heart of Milan, opposite the historic Palazzo del Senato, a project takes shape-one that engages with the city’s architectural identity and contributes to an elegant, coherent urban patchwork.

Just steps from Via Montenapoleone, in a building meticulously renovated with sartorial care, a collection of exclusive apartments has been created for those who seek not just a place to stay, but a deeper immersion in the Milanese way of life. Here, interior design becomes narrative, and each floor a chapter of its own.

The five suites share the same layout: a spacious living room, kitchen, two bedrooms, three bathrooms, and two balconies. Yet it’s in the details that each floor reveals its soul. Finishes and furnishings shift in tone, following the natural light and creating a chromatic palette that grows more intense with each level.

The custom-designed kitchens on each floor are dressed in colors that evoke emotion: cactus green, sky blue, blush pink, rust red, and aqua green. Soft or bold tones, paired with interiors either in harmony or contrast, shape spaces where functionality is enhanced by visual delight. Materials invite touch, while maintaining durability over time.
In the junior bathrooms, time is reflected in the details.

Five different wood finishes—from natural and thermo-treated oak to maple, mahogany, and glossy lacquer—reinterpret a refined vintage style that converses with the present without nostalgia.
Each wood essence welcomes daily rituals with a new depth; every material choice invites one to slow down, to inhabit time. Maple also appears in a large library filled with curated books, inviting quiet moments of reading.

This project is an ode to Italian design: every floor is furnished with iconic objects and carefully chosen materials. The interiors evoke tradition and reinterpret it within a contemporary vision of living. And the view over central Milan is simply priceless.
